I am trying to move some code from 7.9.14 to 8.0.12 that interacts with Active Directory. The old code uses `from javax.naming import *` but I am receiving an error `ImportError: No module named naming` I cannot find anything on the web that says the naming package is not in OpenJDK. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also does OpenJDK have a API page like Oracle does where you can browse through all the packages? ---

Hmm, we might not package this module with our custom runtime. @jcoffman can you verify that? The module is `java.naming`. ---

For some reason it will not let me import \*. If I explicitly import the class names then I can get it to work. ---

That’s probably a Python/Jython change from version 2.5 (in 7.9) to 2.7 (in 8.0), then. ---

That makes more sense than the module not being included in our runtime, seeing as we use it for AD user profiles… ---

Yeah, I just confirmed the module `java.naming` is present in the bundled JRE ---

I’ve never known wildcards to work when importing from java classes. What version of Ignition had that?
